Monitor Processes and restart the processes if failed or stopped?

I've been asked to see if I can get Orion to monitor a few processes on a server and if they stop/fail have either a script or VB script to kick of the .exe to restart the processes.

  • You can absolutely do this and the difficulty will vary depending on where the script lies, server type, etc. One way you could do it would be to create a custom alert for the process on the server (you can use a regular alert if this will be used for all servers of a type). As one of the trigger actions on the alert, you can use the "run a script" option, or you can use the "run an external program" option (for instance, if you have to run psexec).
